China has at least 80% of the global market share in solar manufacturing capacity, making Chinese exports an important dataset for tracking the clean energy transition. In the first half of 2023, exports of solar panels from China grew by 34%, with 114 GW shipped worldwide, compared to 85 GW in the same period last year.
Exports of solar modules from China to the rest of the world have increased 34% year-on-year, growing from 85 GW in the first half of 2022 to 114 GW in the same period this year, which is almost as much as the total exported over the whole of 2021.
China’s 2023 solar exports hit a record high with over 40% growth for all equipment. The surge was dominated by modules that reached a new high of 227 GW. Meanwhile, cells had the most rapid growth at 61.6% to 38 GW. The country consolidated its control over module supply chain manufacturing, with its share exceeding 80%.
China currently produces around eight out of every ten solar panels, and the growth in Chinese exports has global implications for the scale-up of clean power. The data reveals that Europe accounted for 52.5% of the value of China’s solar exports in the first half of 2023.
With a total over the last 12 months of 19 GW, Brazil is the largest single destination for China’s solar module exports outside of Europe. Solar cells, which are unassembled parts that make up solar panels, made up the remaining 10% of China’s solar exports by value ($2.5 bn).
China unleashed the full might of its solar energy industry last year. It installed more solar panels than the United States has in its history. It cut the wholesale price of panels it sells by nearly half. And its exports of fully assembled solar panels climbed 38 percent while its exports of key components almost doubled.
